Dvar Torah

This week we would like to share an adapted version of Oz Haviv’s Graduation Dvar Torah delivered to the Elsa High School Class of 2020 and their parents.

Parashat Naso describes the events that took place in the Sinai desert.

“Shavuot”, meaning “weeks”, refers to the seven weeks that we count between Pesach and Shavuot

This week’s parashah is Bamidbar, in Hebrew that means “in the desert”

This week's parsha, Behar-Bechukotai begins with laws regarding the Sabbatical year

This week’s parsha, Behar-Bechukotai, takes place on Mount Sinai where G‑d communicates to Moses the laws of the Sabbatical year (שנת שמיטה).
